OUR STORY

Harrington’s was formed in 1980 as a New York based art consultancy to service the needs of sophisticated collectors and corporations interested in building art collections. From its New York City roots, it has grown to be an international, full-service, art consultancy and financial services corporation offering a range of products including an on-line art gallery, a suite of refined design services, art conservation and appraisal services. Integral to the fine art structure are insurance and financial services including a New York based, Diversified Art fund.

Today, the Art market is experiencing rapid change. No longer is it a cottage industry of insiders buying and selling where only a limited audience can benefit from the profits in the trade. New sales mechanisms are presently being developed. New communities are being engaged and demand for quality artwork is global.

As a result of this rapid change, new market dynamics are evolving and art is taking on a higher status in the financial community. For the first time, indices are tracking all auction sales such that an artist’s work and its value can be more easily determined. Monumental shifts are now visible within art market sectors creating opportunities throughout the marketplace to obtain top-quality work with greater pricing transparency.

Understanding The Art Market

Understanding the many variables in today’s art market are essential when considering a purchase of a work of art. Though it may be exciting to stand on the auction floor and place your bid, more likely than not, you may vastly over-pay for the work of art that you desire. The guiding hand of the art consultant can help to avoid these pitfalls. We, at Harrington’s, have extensive knowledge and in depth experience acquiring art for its quality and potential long-term value. We work with our discerning clients to understand their needs and their tastes. We selectively acquire works of art from the finest sources that reflect optimum value and the highest quality.
